Super Sam to visit Essex Libraries this August

Essex’s broadband superhero, Super Sam is returning this year to continue to raise awareness about Essex County Council’s Superfast Essex programme which is enabling 144,000 homes and businesses to access superfast broadband across the county.

Super Sam will be visiting libraries across the county during the Summer Reading Challenge to meet even more people and tell them about the benefits of superfast broadband. Visits to Maldon, Chelmsford, Harwich and Basildon libraries have been confirmed for August, and more dates and locations are due to be added.

To mark Super Sam’s return, he went back to St Lawrence Church of England Primary School in Rowhedge for the school’s end of summer term celebrations to meet some of the children who helped create him last year. Children from the school helped to describe what Super Sam should look like and featured in an animated film available at Super Sam talking about what they use the internet for.
